Hello There!
In the sweltering midday sun, the paint on the Hogwarts edifice glistened. The heated, blue sky was pierced by the sun-lit towers. The buildings were illuminated by the warm light of the afternoon sun. Particulates appeared to dance in the slanted afternoon sun that entered the courtyard.
One of the benches in the courtyard was where Ashley was sitting. A tree of ordinary size provided shade for the bench. Although it wasn't his regular hangout, he sat and observed his fellow Hogwarts schoolmates chatting, laughing, and talking about unrelated topics. The boy sat and observed everything and everyone around him.
Ashley decided that it was time to venture to the library and attempt to read anything intriguing. How odd his personality is... The majority of his peers believe that reading is "not fashionable," but for the Ravenclaw youngster, it was energizing and fascinating to discover someone's imaginative side and how creative they could be in writing. It was wit & wisdom above all after all.
This time, the desert heat was far too oppressive, and the young man swore that if he knew any spell that could conjure snow, he would use it immediately. There was nothing that could be done at the time. Two youngsters who appeared to be running around and making a lot of noise, possibly shouting each other's name, fascinated him. God forbid it was so hot for such loudness, but that was the point of the courtyard, right? To relax and maybe even have some fun while catching up with one another.
A group of boys were poised to enter the courtyard as they were conversing with one another, just as Ashley was preparing to leave the courtyard to go to the library.
According to his own inspection, there were three Hufflepuff boys wearing comparable school attire and yet one of them wore differently. The lads' dark robes featured a Hufflepuff emblem on the left side, and the color yellow was on them, giving them a vibrant appearance. Ashley wore a robe that was identical to the students' but distinguished him from them by having the color blue on it and Ravenclaw insignia.
As Ashley started to make his way out of the Courtyard, he noticed a Hufflepuff boy who appeared to be taller than Ashley and definitely not in his first year. He made careful to keep an eye on the other boy until his instincts told him that he was being monitored. Although Ashley was taking a chance because he was unsure if his actions would be successful or not.

He sighed and suddenly heard someone calling his name, he turned his attention to his badger friend “What the hell do you want?” He asked sharply, feeling a little annoyed because they had taken him out of his thoughts. His friend asked him if he wanted to go out to the courtyard where they could take advantage of the day and do something that everyone would like. Hades bit his lower lip, thinking of the suggestion. He finally gave in to his friend’s suggestion.
The badger had been arguing with his housemates to find out what they could do, some plan that could enjoy a wonderful day. They had noticed that the sun was at the top of the sky, and it was even brighter than usual. It was quite odd for Hades.
In January there were rarely sunny days. He missed the snow and the cold contact. There was really nothing to do, although Hades would know how to fix this in order to still feel the cold and maybe the snow.x
He made his way out of the common room, ignoring what his friends were doing. Hades was abstracted, not hearing the loud screams of the three boys behind him. He was the only one who wore a casual outfit instead of a school attire... He had always thought that it was not necessary to wear the uniform in his spare time. Despite his blood status, Hades did not follow the traditions that other students like him, perhaps because he did not really like school uniforms; one of the guys caught up with Hades “Hey, you got plans to go to Hogsmeade today?” asked the boy, Hades looked at him and nodded “Yes, in fact, I was thinking of getting some candies.” he replied, shrugging. To tell the truth, he wanted to go alone and not dealing with them.
He appreciated his friends, but sometimes he had the feeling that sometimes they could be a burden and sometimes even be annoying. Often his thoughts were interrupted or he got dragged into doing something he did not like. He zipped up all the way and stepped out of the passageway, entering the grounds of the courtyard. It was certainly a beautiful day and there were quite a few students who had come to enjoy the sunlight. Maybe it wasn’t a bad idea to come here after all... The group were placed in an area near a large tree where they sheltered from sunlight. And while his friends were talking, Hades was barely paying attention and had devoted himself to observing his surroundings, absorbing everything. He closed his eyes and turned his back on his friends.
With his eyes closed, Hades could better perceive the smells “I can feel everything around me.” he muttered to himself, noticing the smell of wet grass entering his nose. He couldn’t help but smile, because he loved it when the grass was wet and that smell was refreshing. Once he opened his eyes, he looked up at the sky and then laid his eyes on a boy, who seemed to be watching him and his group. And then that boy got up to leave, which made the badger hasten to leave his group and reach the boy “Excuse me, are you the Montez boy?” asked with a smile. He took advantage of the fact that he was close to him and devoted himself to study him. The boy was definitely a first year, and had deduced it by the height and polished uniform of Ravenclaw.

Hello There!
The commotion seemed to be decreasing slowly as Ashley made his way out of the courtyard, but that was not what he paid attention to because his main focus was the Hufflepuff boys.
"What the hell are you looking for?" The boy who said these comments appeared to have attracted Ashley's attention and his gaze became as piercing as a needle.
" How rude?." Ashley mumbled to himself as his gaze shifted facing what was up ahead.
Ashley appeared to have left his necktie on the bench where he was seated as he walked slowly. Given that Hogwarts was extremely exhausting due to the various classes, he appeared pleasant despite his very disheveled appearance. Although the school was fantastic, homework and other obligations were not at all.
Fortunately, no one had taken what Ashley had forgotten, therefore it was still where he had left it. Ashley returned to get what he had forgotten, but as he was ready to leave the area and take a break from the boisterous youngsters, his eyes once more fell on the unpleasant lad.
The young man shrugged and made the decision to pay more attention to worthwhile things than boring individuals.
" Ah, that's much better." He was now properly donning the school outfit, which courted in confidence. Ashley had no notion of what was going on that particular day, but he found himself peering at the group of Hufflepuff lads once more. He walked four steps before a stranger's voice said, "Excuse me, are you the Montez boy?" as he was ready to avert his gaze yet another time and stride toward the Library.
As he turned to confront whoever spoke his last name, his demeanor altered and he had a disgruntled look on his face. His facial expression stagnated as he said "Yes?" cold and curiously. Just seconds after turning his entire body to face the lad who spoke; he had just met with a stranger's smile and with Ashley being Ashley, he naturally refused to reciprocate the energy given by the other individual.
" How may I help you? " He questioned with a cold tone

It was not very common for Hades to be in places where he might be too exposed to the eyes of curious students. He always enjoyed going outside and the like, but not so much when the whole place was full of students, and that would keep him from feeling comfortable. It was true that sunny days were sometimes the best for vitamins when sunbathing, but... The badger had a preference for cold because according to him it sharpened his mental agility. Another problem is that when it was sunny, many people were outside, which made it difficult for him to enjoy his moments outdoors, unlikely when it got cold, most of the students took refuge in the common rooms. Hades certainly had different preferences, but he had always been noted for having quite different habits. He heard laughter from his companions, which made him frown “What are you laughing at?” he asked, one of them pointed to a boy being chased by a firecracker.
He stared, not understanding what was funny. Having had the same experience as that boy almost two years ago, it made him empathize for him “I don’t understand what you find it funny... You’ll see how you won’t laugh when they do the same with you.” he replied, rolling his eyes. It was certainly something he would not be comfortable with. He was used to scolding his friends for laughing at things they shouldn’t “At worst, I’ll be the one doing it to you.”
It was the last thing he said to his friends. Being close to the boy who had been watching him, he was able to better examine his facial features, but he was a little perplexed by the way the other had reacted after he was asked if he was the Montez boy, since Hades was unable to know with certainty what his name was. A slight thought crossed his mind. Who does this boy think he is to talk to me in these ways? If I caught him checking up on me, that's so impolite!
For a moment, Hades became tense, as he did not receive very well negative reactions when he had tried to be kind. Okay, that was a euphemism. It was rather... Polite. When the boy asked him how he could help him, he took a minute to respond, as he had been thinking “First, it’s a little rude to talk to me like that when you’ve been looking at me for no reason.” he scolded the other, but still used a soft voice. He might have lost his composure, but he didn’t, because he had no reason. Now yes, he went to answer the question “I just approached you to ask why you had been looking at me, it was just that. It is not something that happens very often and it has made me curious as to why.” he replied, arms crossed. Now he was defensive ─ just a little. You could see how he had his arms crossed, his eyes fixed on the boy. And his body was upbright “By the way my name is Hades Schweighöfer.” he said, now in a neutral voice.
